QUEENSBURY - A Hudson Falls woman was charged with drunken driving twice in a three hour, deputies said.

Carla M. Frieman, 50, was initially arrested after a 10:43 p.m. traffic stop Monday on Route 9, according to the Warren County Sheriff's Office. She agreed to an alcohol breath test, deputies said, alleging the test revealed she had a blood alcohol content of .20 percent, more than twice the legal limit for driving while intoxicated.

Frieman was given a ride home, deputies said, but at 12:34 a.m. Tuesday she was spotted returning to her car in Queensbury. A deputy spotted her trying to drive out of a parking lot and stopped her car, the sheriff's department said.

She was given another breath test and registered a .14 percent BAC, deputies said.

Once again, Frieman was charged with driving while intoxicated and released into the custody of a relative.
